Impairment testing of NICs in AI Infrastructures
WHITE PAPER
WHITE PAPER
Artificial Intelligence (AI)I workloads require large GPU clusters interconnected via high-performance networks to handle learning and inference phases efficiently. These workloads involve significant server-to-server traffic, necessitating high bandwidth and low latency. Tools like impairment emulators and protocol analyzers help developers test and optimize network performance, ensuring reliability and efficiency in AI-driven environments.
This White Paper explores how to test NICs used for AI infrastructure, with focus on the RoCEv2 protocol and load balancing.
It outlines how impairment emulators, traffic generators and protocol analyzers can enhance network reliability and efficiency of Ethernet ports.
